Great place to work

Pros

Great people, good benefits, the company tends to promote from within. It's nice to work for a company that's growing, delivering a great product, and actively improving its systems so tomorrow's product will be even better than today's.

Cons

More organizational disruption than would be ideal. The internal joke is that if it's been more than 6 months since the last re-org you shouldn't get too attached to your desk because everyone's likely to be moving before long.

Pros

Lots of knowledgable people and great benefits! I feel valuable. I feel like people respect me and use my knowledge to benefit them and likewise I can lean on other people to glean off of their knowledge. For the first time in a long while I actually feel like I get to learn more everyday and help others learn at the same time!

Cons

No complaints from me so far.
